Answer:

A. pricing

Explanation:

Pricing entails determining the value to attach to a product. It is the process through which a business decides how much customers will pay for its products. A business must consider the production costs and the desired margins when setting a price.

Price plays a crucial role in the success of a product and the business. A high price has higher profit margins but may put-off some customers. A low price may attract demand but may lead to losses. Sometimes, low prices are associated with a poor quality product.

Five hundred units of good x are currently bought and sold. The marginal buyer is willing to pay $40 for the 500th unit, and the

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

D : All options are correct

Explanation:

- The marginal buyer is the essence of demand curve while marginal seller is essence of supply curve.

- @ Q = 500 units, Selling Price is set at SP = $35

- @ Q = 500 units, Buying Price is set at BP = $40

- Since, SP ≠ BP our equilibrium price would be $ 37.5 assuming the price elasticity of demand and supply are equal. In any case the equilibrium price would lie in between [ 35 , 40 ] such that to prevent a shortage of units in near future.

- Moreover, if the seller decides to sell at price $35 then he must sell goods greater than 500 units to reach the equilibrium profits. However, it could also lead to excess of units or surplus.

- We see that from selling the goods at SP = $35 while the buyer is willing to pay BP = $40 for 500 goods, the seller would be under-profiting and would be earning $5*500 = $2,500 less than he would at equilibrium price of $40 and selling units greater than 500. Hence, 500 goods is not an efficient quantity of goods.

jekas [21]

Answer: Number of months = 66.87 months

Explanation:

Given that,

Monthly Payment = $500

Interest rate(r) = 1.95% per month

Current Balance = $18,500

Number of months(t) = ?

$Current\ balance = Monthly\ payment\times(\frac{1-present\ value\ factor}{r})$

$Current\ balance = Monthly\ payment\times(\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+r)^{t}} }{r})$

$18,500 = 500\times(\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+0.0195)^{t}} }{0.0195})$

$\frac{18,500}{500}\times0.0195=1-\frac{1}{1.0195^{t} }$

$\frac{1}{1.0195^{t}}=1-0.7215$

$1.0195^{t}=\frac{1}{0.2785}$

$1.0195^{t}=3.5906$

Taking log on both side

t log(1.0195) = log(3.5906)

$t = \frac{0.5551}{0.0083}$

t = 66.87 months

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The correct option is A,the fourth quarter budgeted revenue is $32500 as shown below.

Explanation:

The budgeted sales quantity for fourth quarter is 1300 units at $25 each.

From Economics equation of revenue equals price multiplied by quantity, the revenue for the fourth quarter is calculated below.

Revenue=P*Q

P=price=$25

Q=budgeted quantity=1300 units

Revenue=$25*1300

Revenue=$32500

The value of this revenue that would be collected in the same quarter is 75%*$32500 is $24375 while the balance of $8125 in the first quarter of the succeeding year.

This way cash flow planning in terms of matching capital payments with cash receipt is better enhanced.
